End of year FuN!

The end of the school year is crazy. I feel like every other day is another event. So, here are a few of the things we've been up to.

1. Kiley had a kindergarten show, "Get Up and Grow," a couple of weeks ago. She makes such a great tulip, Haley and Kiley planned their flower together, and they were adorable. All of the kids did great. Kiley didn't even look nervous during her part.



2. A little late, I know, but I had a great Mother's Day. I can't believe I am showing this picture, but it was all I had. Chris and the kids made me breakfast in bed. I opened the coolest Crystal Light container vase I've ever seen, and some beautiful homemade cards. At church, the kids filled out these questionnaires about their mom. Ryan's was hilarious! He said that if he could get me anything for Mother's day it would be "a gold Transformer!" And, just about every other question had, "cornbread" for the answer! Apparently he was hungry.

3. The kids had their end-of-year gymnastics show. I pity his gymnastics teachers. He was crazy! He ran around the whole time literally bouncing off the walls. I don't know how they control all those boys.

4. Kiley was super cute in her show. She does a pretty good cartwheel. All I know, is there is no way I could do any of the things they attempt.

5. Ryan graduated from preschool! He looked adorable! I can't believe his first year is over. He learned a lot and made wonderful friends. Again, the teachers are my heroes! I have no idea how they handled this class of mostly boys. Each kid was given a certificate of recognition for something. He was given an award for being one of the three musketeers. I will post about this soon, but Ryan has two great friends, Clint and Josh, and they love playing together. Every morning of preschool Ryan would say he wasn't going unless they were there. They are such good boys. One day we will owe Dr. Scorse's first education to Clint and Josh for going to preschool.

Holy Toledo Ash, you've been busy, and I love that you squeezed it all in their. Your headboard on your bed is super cute. I wish we had gymnastics here for our girls, but their is only one dance studio and that is it. I just wish their was more. Maybe I should create it or something. Anyway, the kids look great. And your morning hair is even more fabulous. only teasing. I don't know if I told you this or not, but I love the look of your blog. It is perfect.

Ash, I have no idea how to change that, I just did mine and it worked. I apologize I am unable to figure that out. LOL

Hey! Thanks for the comment! Your family is cute. Yeah- thank goodness for turbo jam, cause it was bad news after my last baby. :) And it is something I will actually do. Anyway, that is great that Ryan went to the same preschool. They are great teachers. Chandler already knew Kim and had been to her house a few times before, so that helped with him liking it right off the bat. It was good to hear from you. Keep in touch!
